Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Locally Advanced Lung Carcinoma
Interventions
Radiation: Hypofractionated radiotherapy
Drug: Concurrent chemotherapy

Split-course adaptive HRT-CHTHypofractionated radiotherapyIn keeping the same total radiation dose (60Gy), we escalate the fraction dose to find the maximum tolerable fraction dose. 1. Level 1: DT 4500cGy/15 daily fractions/300cGy in the first course,DT 1500cGy/5 daily fractions/300cGy in the second course; 2. Level 2: DT 4000cGy/10 daily fractions/400cGy in the first course, DT 2000cGy/5 daily fractions/400cGy in the second course; 3. Level 3: DT 3000cGy/6 daily fractions/500cGy in the first course, DT 3000cGy/6 daily fractions/500cGy in the second course. RT is delivered using the IMRT technique with daily cone-beam CT image guidance. The dose limitation of organ at risk (OAR) are shown in Table 1. Patients receive a weekly infusion of docetaxel (25mg/m2) and cisplatin (25mg/m2) during RT. Consolidative immunotherapy (PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitor) up to 1 year is administered for those without disease progression after HRT-CHT.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
the maximally tolerated fraction dose1 year

The maximum tolerated fraction dose was defined as the highest DL in which \<=2 patients of the 6 treated patients experienced G3+ toxicity and \<=1 patient experienced G4+ toxicity within 12 months after RT. If a patient had multiple types of toxicities, only the highest grade of toxicity was counted.
